Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Husband Indicted

(Los Angeles, CA) — Disgraced lawyer Tom Girardi, husband of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stat Erica Jayne, is now charged with fraud for a scheme in which he allegedly funded a lavish lifestyle with clients’ settlement money. The L.A. Times reports the once-powerful attorney has been indicted by federal grand juries in two states. Prosecutors say he took more than 18 million dollars from clients who’d suffered devastating injuries or deaths of loved ones. At a news conference Wednesday, U.S. attorney in Los Angeles Martin Estrada said the charges point to “corruption by one of the most high-profile plaintiff’s lawyers in the country.”
